Credible reports of at least 3 Indian Air Force jets downed. This counts as significant losses given the extreme difficulty with which such assets can be replaced. Unlikely this tempo can be maintained for very long without serious change in strategy.
The open fighting between India and Pakistan looks as bad as it's been in a long long time. India claiming to have hit nine targets inside Pakistan, Pakistan claiming to have downed two jets and hit an airbase. Every possibility things get worse from here.
